But the past does affect the future. From his vantage point at St. Joe's, DiJulia isn't so sure the Big East's schools that don't play I-A football will be orphaned.

"My instinct is that whatever's left of the Big East, that they still might have greater leverage, football and basketball together,'' DiJulia said.

His point is that the Big East basketball brand is so well established now. The fact that none of the league's non-I-A football schools are left in this year's NCAA tournament, that won't change the brand.

"If the football guys separate themselves from Georgetown and Villanova, the [football schools] might lose,'' DiJulia said.

    “This is not a broken football program by any means. It just needs to be united, to get everybody on the same page, share that same vision, and really to have that standard - best is the standard.”

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
